I Shot The Sheriffv2

Riff:

Chorus:

I shot the sheriff but i did not shoot no deputy

I shot the sheriff but i did not shoot no deputy

Verses:

All around in my hometown trying to track me down

Sheriff john brown always hated me for what i dont no

Freedom came my way one day so i started out of town

Reflexes got the better of me what will be will be

Chorus:

I shot the sheriff but i did not shoot no deputy

I shot the sheriff but i did not shoot no deputy

They say they want to bring me in guilty killing of a deputy

And every time that i plant a seed he said kill it before it grows

All of a sudden i see sheriff john brown aimin to shoot me down

Everyday the bucket goes to the well one day the bottom will drop out

Chorus:

I shot the sheriff but i did not shoot no deputy

I shot the sheriff but i did not shoot no deputy

For the life of a deputy but i say

Kill it before it grows

So i shot so i shot him down

I say one day the bottom will drop out
